Sunday Morning Small Groups

First United Methodist Church of Allen’s Sunday morning life groups (a.k.a. Sunday school) are small groups of adults with similar interests, gathering together for fellowship, to learn more about the Bible and their faith, and to grow in that faith through sharing with one another.

Some class members might be brand new to this church, new to the Methodist church, or new to the Christian faith. Some may be further along in their faith journey. A Sunday school class is a great way to meet other people in the church and build lasting and meaningful relationships.

Sunday school classes are a great way to meet other people in the church and build lasting and meaningful relationships. We invite you to visit several classes as a guest. Join them each Sunday as they gather to laugh, share, and grow in their relationships with Jesus Christ. We are sure you’ll find the right class that fits your spiritual needs and unique personality. We have classes for young or old, married or single, parents with young ones or living in an empty nest at 8:15am, 9:30am, and 11:00am.

If you have any questions about any of these classes, contact Susan Hale, Adult Ministries, 972.727.8261, x103 g.
